Advice on Unsatisfactory EICR report

[The Ghost]

It does niggle me that the rn/r1/r2 are not showing in the report.

Id bet my 50p that zero dead testing was carried out.

Any chance on getting the EICR price?

I think I purged the EICR of any identifying info, so £245, no VAT.

How long were they on site?

Id bet my 50p that zero dead testing was carried out.

Interestingly, I found the previous EICR,
- it has the r1, rn, r2 values on the ring mains.
- and it had 1mm cable for lighting circuits which I don't believe. This may have just been copied into the new EICR.
- the IR tests on the ring mains and lighting was not done due to "unable to remove all load sockets, lighting had electronic dimmers"

There's still a dimmer upstairs, but it's downstairs lighting that has the supposed earth leakage.

Still do a L&N to E IR test at 250V DC.

Id be Pi$$ed if i paid 250 quid for that carp.

How long were they on site?

About 4.5 hours for £245

If any member of the public post a EICR on here it will be pulled apart by us for the minor things, thats why you have had a big response on here. That report to me is pretty poorly written up, missing information and misleading.

Id ask the estate agent why they recommended him at that price, see if there is a member on here local who will price for the board change and give you a hourly rate of any faults that might be present.
